The red velvet cake is so moist and the cream cheese frosting is on point! Our barista Kevin is pinnacle! He suggested a coffee for my daughter. He promised to make her another one if she didn't like it. It was delish by the way Kevin🥰

Fun place, one of my favorite recommendations! Variety of drinks and bakery options. Lots of seating but it can get pretty full of students studying during the school year, but it's worth going to try to find a spot to stay and sip your coffee!

I’m not sure how it’s upholding it’s reputation with food and services like this! I asked for a cheese cake and the caramel sauce on the side. I was presented with a cheesecake still wrapped in saran wrap that sits in a pool of caramel sauce in the paper dish. How am i supposed to eat the cheesecake without getting everything sticky? Am I supposed to eat the saran wrap with the cake? Or is the staff just too good for unwrapping a cake? The cheesecake was underwhelming, i’d rather get one in starbucks. The last time I came in I asked for an italian soda without ice. Staff could not fill the cup to full because they have to “leave space for ice” even if I ordered without ice in the first place. Really tells you about the business. I give one star for the decoration, and another star for existing. For service i would go to sencha, for food and drink I would go to lec’s, for vibes I’d rather be in a library than this cafe!

Coffee of course, but a wide delicious selection of sweet and savory goodies. Super friendly staff is a bonus

Went in for a coffee since I hadn't tried it yet. Got the Grasshopper Mocha and the carrot cake. The Grasshopper could have been a touch more minty and chocolatey, but not bad. However, I do tend to like stronger drinks, and it would have been very good if it were a touch thicker. The carrot cake is so worth it. It's a chonker and worth every calorie. If I could ever find the recipe for it, I'd be pretty satisfied with what I've done in life. Also, can't forget to mention the nice staff and quick service.

The staff are always super friendly. The best place to stop in for coffee and dessert before seeing a show downtown.

It’s been a few years since I went in, but grabbed a coffee and scone today. Watered down coffee and flavorless scone. Not to mention the kids behind the bar were not friendly. If I remember correctly, they fired a bunch of employees around COVID when they wanted a mask policy? Seems like the management hasn’t gotten any better. There’s better coffee shops downtown to give your $ to

Delicious treats and drinks. Staff very nice and were so friendly about helping me decide on drinks. The place was pretty overrun with college students on the weekend so there was nowhere to sit if you wanted but it was much less packed on a weekday morning. Try the bakery goods...they are delicious!

My favoriteee coffee shop to go to as it is a minute away from my apartment. ONLY two things I don't like about this place & why sometimes I switch up my study spots is because they have like no outlets and some of their tables are so wobbly! Not that it's really something the shop itself did but as predominant college area with tonnss of kids who come to study ( myself included) it really makes it hard sometimes to find adequate seating. Other than that; great food, ambiance and you will leave smelling like a coffee bean (: if that's your thing.

The baked goods are always DELICIOUS, but for me the coffee is hit-and-miss. Prices are also a little crazy. A breakfast bagel and latte for $17!

These guys have the most amazing chocolate cake ever! A bit pricey but totally worth it.

Super friendly service and great drinks. Lattes tasted amazing! The paninis were just fine, we did wish they were a tad more flavorful but it’s not bad at all. Cosy, great vibe ☕️

Comfortable place with lots of nice art pieces on the walls. The waitress was very accommodating as we had small children. Pastries & sweets were plentiful & tasty! It's a good place to go if you're alone & just want to read a book.

This place has good vibes and fun art! I love the sleeves they put on the cups. The employees have always been nice. I love the jasmine tea and paninis! But the chai lattes are incredibly inconsistent and often taste flavorless :( (previously left a 3 star review but changing it)
